Under Wraps, the first book in the Underworld Detection Agency series, has been slashed to $1.99 at Amazon as a promotion for the sixth book (Under the Final Moon, released last week), but B&N and Kobo still show it at about $5.50.
Note that this is a Kensington title, so it IS promo-eligible at Kobo. EDIT, 8/13: The $1.99 deal has expired. Last edited by Rev. Bob; 08-13-2014 at 05:04 AM. |

I noticed that Amazon was selling a large number of Year's Best Fantasy and Year's Best SF anthologies edited by David G. Hartwell and Kathryn Cramer for $0.99
I saw a number of SF anthologies edited by Jonathan Strahan for the same price. |

Kindred
by Octavia E. Butler is today's Nook Daily Find. It can be downloaded for $2.99 http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/kind...=9780807083703 Below is the blurb Winner of both the Hugo and Nebula awards, Octavia E. Butler was considered one of the best science fiction writers of her generation. Kindred tells the story of a Dana, a modern black woman, celebrating her birthday in California with her new husband in 1976 when she is snatched abruptly from her home in California and transported to the antebellum South. Rufus, the white son of a plantation owner, is drowning, and Dana has been summoned to save him. Dana is drawn back repeatedly through time to the slave quarters, and each time the stay grows longer, more arduous, and more dangerous until it is uncertain whether or not Dana's life will end, long before it has a chance to begin. |

This freebie is by Jodi Taylor author of The Chronicles of St. Mary's which many here I think enjoyed.
The Nothing Girl by Jodi Taylor Jodi Taylor brings all her comic writing skills to this heart-warming tale of self-discovery. Known as “The Nothing Girl” because of her severe stutter and chronically low self-confidence, Jenny Dove is only just prevented from ending it all by the sudden appearance of Thomas, a mystical golden horse only she can see. Under his guidance, Jenny unexpectedly acquires a husband – the charming and chaotic Russell Checkland – and for her, nothing will ever be the same again. With over-protective relatives on one hand and the world's most erratic spouse on the other, Jenny needs to become Someone. And fast! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KFKQE50/ http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00KFKQE50/ I suppose a mystical golden horse only she can see lets it count as fantasy. |

Crash by Lisa Mcmann is $1.99 [Simon & Schuster] at most retailers. YA fantasy-ish.
